Do you enjoy a slow walk in a valley, breezes, wildflowers, the sounds of songbird, the taste of a Douglas Fir needle or a California Bay leaf, the aroma of Tarweed, or watching wild turkeys and California Quail hunt for seeds and insects in the grass? Join Sugarloaf docents for this series of meandering explorations. Each month (weather permitting) we will explore one or two of our three accessible trails– the Creekside Trail, the Nature Trail, and the Meadow trail. Suitable for all levels and a range of mobility, these Sunday afternoon adventures will accommodate people using walkers or wheelchairs, young children, parents with babies in strollers, and those who just enjoy slow walks in nature that stimulate the five senses.
This outing, led by Reptile Educator Galen Freed-Wilhem, will focus on reptiles and their habitat. Tickets are $5 or free for children under 12 (an adult must accompany minors). Meet at the Robert Ferguson Observatory classroom, where the event will start with a 20-minute presentation before heading out on the Creekside Nature Trail. There will be frequent stops and opportunities for conversation, photography, nature journaling, wildlife viewing, resting, etc., so bring your nature journal, camera, or binoculars if you have them. Wear comfortable shoes, a hat, sun protection, bring water and if desired, a snack. Space limited to 12. Rains cancel. Parking fees apply.
